Parking on Unincorporated Summit County Roads
In unincorporated Summit County, parking on county roads is generally prohibited. This includes the road's right-of-way, which extends beyond the paved surface. Violations can lead to fines and towing. It's important to ensure adequate off-street parking on your property to avoid illegal parking. Temporary parking permits for special events or circumstances can be requested online HERE.
SUMMIT COUNTY NOXIOUS WEEDS
Noxious weeds are more than plants out of place, they’re non-native invasive species that disrupt our native vegetation and ecosystems. They threaten the very reasons we live, work and recreate in Summit County. Any questions, contact Summit County Weed Control at (970) 668-4218.
PLEASE DO YOUR PART BY MITIGATING THESE WEEDS ON YOUR PROPERTY BY PULLING AND PUTTING THEM IN THE TRASH. Two species found in the Frisco Terrace neighborhood are False Chamomile (little white daisies) and Yellow Toadflax (yellow snapdragons).

RAINWATER COLLECTION QUICK FACTS
Most homeowners in Colorado are now allowed to use rain barrels to collect rainwater. A maximum of two rain barrels with a combined storage of 110 gallons or less are allowed at each household. Collected rainwater may be used to irrigate outdoor lawns, plants or gardens. Untreated rainwater collected from roofs is not safe to drink. For more information, visit:

SUMMIT COUNTY WATER AUGMENTATION
(Leasing water rights) The policies and pricing structure to contract for water from Summit County Government have changed. The plan policy, rate schedule, application and instructions are all available at the Summit County Water Augmentation Program webpage. One of the main changes is that they now include hot tub augmentation as an allowable use. Several of our homeowners have gone through leasing augmented well rights and have noted the process is more affordable and simple that previously perceived. |
